Notes

  1. 1 2 In order to circumvent Korean laws that prevent commercial breaks in the middle of an episode, what would previously have been aired as single 70 minute episodes are now being repackaged as two 35 minute episodes, with two episodes being shown each night with a commercial break between the two. [1]
  2. No episodes were aired on October 22 due to the broadcast of a KBO playoff baseball game between the Hanhwa Eagles and Nexen Heroes.
